Turkish Pilav (Rice) image

I've seen many varying dishes of rice in Turkey, all of them quite good, so this is just one of many. This variation has a good taste, but because the flavor isn't too bold it makes an easy side dish to most meals. Afiyet Olsun!

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup white rice
4 tablespoons brown rice or 4 tablespoons noodles
3 tablespoons oil
1 1/2 cups hot water
1 chicken bouillon cube
vegetable seasoning

Steps:

  • Over high heat, add oil and brown rice to pan.
  • Cook until rice is browned well (will look dark, almost burnt -- if using noodles, they will look slightly burnt).
  • Mix in water, white rice, and boulion cube (for easier mixing, break cube first).
  • Sprinkle a small amount of vegetable seasonsing over the mixture (amount depending on desired taste -- I would guess about 0.5 to 1 TBSP max). Stir.
  • Turn heat to medium and cover.
  • Occasionally stirring the rice, cook until tender (water will be gone before rice is done).
